Unless I missed it, there are still 5 unannounced traits. I'm hoping that will see something original that will open up new build possibilities.
Some I've thought about:
NImble: increases dodge chance by 3-5%
Finessed: Decreases LA/HA (or perhaps all) cooldowns by x%
Functional: Basically a prismatic trait that provides all 3 resources
Profane: You're attacks have a chance to crit as oblivion damage
Priceless: Increases critical damage done by 5%, and also provides 330 critical resistance
Refined: adds 10 percentage penetration

✭✭✭✭✭Not that excited really, it’s just gonna lead to a whole bunch of OP builds for PvP, and eventually to a new meta until it gets nerves. Same with PvE. Multitudes of other issue, balances and fixes I’d rather see.Edited by Vapirko on April 2, 2018 11:28AM2 -
wolfxspice✭✭✭a trait that gives more weapon or spell damage based on the damage you do, (similar to two fanged snake) i think this would promote aggressive game play, and punish running, (because you would have to build up your stacks again)I'm a casual now0 -

LMAO damn that's what I was going to say.
OP, I am super glad you're not in charge of balancing PvP. Those numbers are a tad out there.
I fondly remember putting on my all-Intricate set of gear for decon at release (turns out that's not how it works).
I would dearly love a stackable mount speed boost that could be combined with Major Gallop and the Cyrodiil's Ward set bonuses.0 -

As I'm not in charge of balancing, the numbers were merely a starting point for discussion. Which in particular do you find too unbalanced (I'm guessing Priceless, as it is a little too sick, but I really would like more ways to buff crit resistance and more avenues towards increasing crit damage modifier. Refined would be slightly OP for tank-hunting, I guess too. Maybe 5% instead. Like crit damage and crit resistance, there just aren't that many ways to work percentage penetration into builds currently (Just the passives for Maces, Mauls, Destro staff, and that's it I believe). Dodge chance is much the same as well with only a handful of ways to access major evasion, and wardens have access to minor evasion.0 -
del9✭✭✭✭maybe a trait called "make pvp playable" that gives me x Frames in Cyrodil or mitigates server lag by x %? That would be coolPCNA4

As I recall, no. It sped up all animations, I think. But it's been years, so I may be misremembering.0 -

Renewing sounds good to me.
I will take shielding under consideration in my non position of fake community jewelry trait broker, however it also needs to offer something for medium armor users, like a dodge roll cost cooldown reduction or a percentage buff to the dodge chance granted by shuffle.
Enduring would literally break the game though, LOL.0 -

How about we call it RADIANT - and instead of forfeiting their next attack, it will give your attacks a percentage chance to apply the "blinded" status effect, causing all their attacks to miss for 5 seconds. I think Blessed is the only way to currently apply "blinded".2 -

I like hardening as an idea, but resistance is already pretty easy to stack, and ultimately that's only 2K resistance buff at it's peak, which in PVP is like a 3% damage reduction. Maybe make it non-resistance based mitigation like Hardy and elemental defender? That way it would also strengthen damage shields by the same percentage.

WrathOfInnos✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭Infused: Increase jewelry enchant effect by 70%
For a typical spell damage enchant this would result in 0.7 X 174 = 121 bonus spell damage from the trait. Comparing this to a standard set bonus, this is 121/129 or 94% as strong as a set bonus.
This is about as strong as the arcane trait, which is 870/967 = 90% of a standard set bonus.
Technically the value should be about 66.7% increase in enchant to balance with arcane, but 70% seems a lot cleaner (and would give a little incentive to trait change all your jewelry).
Edit: Confirmed this is happening, with a value of 60% (close enough to my guess).Edited by WrathOfInnos on April 3, 2018 6:26PM0 -

xbobx✭✭✭✭✭i would like to see some traits that are not just about fighting.
eg. traits that give bonuses to whats in chests like the cp one. So if you have cp and traits a simple chest could roll as an advanced.

Some of the others I'm not sure about.
Revitalizing is basically "Wardenizing", isn't it. Catalyzing is basically Kena.WrathOfInnos wrote: »Infused: Increase jewelry enchant effect by 70%

Yeah, if I had to bet on one trait being include, infused would be it.
